“Good hness”

Sonia pushed the door open and saw the petite figure in her paja by the bedrooentle smile and beckoned to Sonia

“Isn’t Madam Serene around today?”

Sonia closed the door behind her and went up to Lilian She gazed around and didn’t find Archangel Serene anywhere in the roo because Lilian definitely wouldn’t have worn her pajairl would surely be on her guard But after days of company, Lilian treated Sonia as a personal servant and friend, so she wasn’t particular about it

Lilian nodded

“Yes, Serene isn’t around today She has so to attend to”

“I see…”

Sonia murmured under her breath But she was filled with suspicion deep down

ave Sonia this et closer with Lilian, he also requested her to observe the two Archangels Initially, Sonia felt that this order was rather strange However, she slowly discovered that two Archangels were definitely quite strange in their actions

Sonia considered the situation froel Boulder and Serene were considered the biggest obstacles for the Light Parliaon out of the picture Therefore, she thought that the two Archangels would always be by Lilian’s side to reht create Back then when Sonia returned to Casabianca, she was els

But to her surprise, the two Archangels didn’t seeel Boulder had never showed up before her On the other hand, Sonia had the chance to observe Archangel Serene for a couple of days when she visited Lilian earlier on Although Sonia felt that this was rude of her, she felt that the two Archangels didn’t seem concerned about Lilian at all Not only did her presence raise any alarh handed over their duties to her and left without explanations

to strike when I reveal my true intentions? But it doesn’t seem like it…

Sonia was puzzled But it was apparent that Lilian didn’t give too ht to this In the past, Lilian felt bored whenever Serene wasn’t around, but after she got to know Sonia, she hoped that Serene wouldn’t show up as often No matter what, if Serene was around, Lilian needed to on But if it was only Sonia and her, she wouldn’t need to worry about it and could just be herself

“By the way, Sonia, it see festival?”

To Lilian, Sonia was her current channel to the outside world Perhaps due to herdecisions without permission, Lilian had been put under house arrest in the palace and she couldn’t even step out of the palace after returning to Casabianca

“No, Your Majesty”

Sonia said casually while laying out the tea and desserts for Lilian

“The quadrennial election has officially begun It should have been held during the second half of last year, but due to the Country of Darkness’s invasion, it was postponed until now”

“… I see…”

Lilian seemed rather depressed She picked up the hot tea and pondered for a few moments

“By the way, Sonia… I know the chairh an election, so he will surely be receiving all the support froht…? Then, if I…”

“That’s not true, Your Majesty”

Sonia shook her head

“Ever since the Light Parliament was established, none of the chairmans have had a support rate of over 60 percent Most of the support rates were between 40 and 50 percent, and some even won the election with a 30 percent support rate”

“Huh?”

Lilian lifted her head and widened her eyes in surprise

“But didn’t the Light Parliament say that the chairman is always chosen by all the people of the country?”

“Yes, but that didn’t nized by everyone in the country, Your Majesty”

Sonia responded

“Based on the current situation, Sir Nakvard and Sir Greig seem to be in the lead with 38 and 32 percent in votes respectively The re the other candidates, so even at the last stages of the voting, the people won’t unconditionally support a candidate The people may cast their vote for the candidate who they support, but if the candidate fails to be selected, the vote will be nulled Whereas for the final support rate… even if it was between 51 and 49 percent or doesn’t surpass half the number of votes, the candidate will still be the new chairman”

‘In other words, the new chairman won’t be supported by everyone?”

Lilian asked hurriedly At this moment, she had clenched her fists

“But how is this… Why is it this way? Are there no other ways to gain everyone’s support?”

“That’s impossible, Your Majesty”
